Monsieur Ibrahim et les fleurs du Coran

When it was all to be had, life was and continues to be arranged round radio plays and noone's complaining when the 30-yr panasonic is perpetually locked into beebie's offering. There are 2 that will be remembered for a very long time: What makes Sammy run and Monsieur Ibrahim et les fleurs de Coran. The second i heard only a month back. Both radio adaptations. Lets pick Monsieur Ibrahim shall? Here's up a poster of the film version I hears been done a time back, starring Omar Sharief and going by it seems the right mix of eyecandy and wistful perfect color contrasts. Thats just why you have to catch the radioplay read by the brilliant Henry Goodman; where the colors, truths and shadows are your fabulist call. Monsieur Ibrahim's very like Malena as well in its background comingofage thread only more rugged, truthful, timorous, inexact, wrenching, tender. To be walked out on by your own father and find mystery in the streetstoreman enough to adopt him? Criticism has been on the lines of it being noncommital on religion but the flake is that? Not for a story to sort out the sordid.
